MING Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 ok got fed of lack of response 😔 to the sale of my blackbird so in a moment of madness/fustration ive listed it on flee bay with no reserve and a 5 grand starting price its on a 7day auction end 19.00hrs ish sat 1st august it may seem a bit of a radical move but im banned by SHMBO from spending any more money on the new project until ive shifted it (dammed resession) times is ard you see. so tell your friends/family/colleges/enemys/anyone/everyone who may be in the market for a well looked after manicley quick piece of caterham history provided they live in the UK (unless they are prepared and or capable of exporting it to wherever they come from ) maybe just maybe ill get a response and some action now! 😔 almost forgot its here; Mings blackbird Ming 😬 (disgruntled of Daventry 😔) so many supercars so little time!!!!!!

Gridgway Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 well, if there is no reserve and you have bidders over the start price, then it's sold. Just a question of what it goes for in the end. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Area Representative gileshudson Posted August 1, 2009 Area Representative Share Posted August 1, 2009 Think Ming'll get £14,501.01 My bet placed as £15,501.01 (ish, as Dave said) 😬 Hope he gets £16,501.01 upwards Giles Beryl the Peril (HPC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyH Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 I'm expecting the price to start moving about 3 minutes from the end. I'll stick with my original estimate. Hope you dont end up with a highest bidder who hasnt made contact with you. Penn 7s Joint AR with Markiebabes (aka The Blatmeister) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
